Until very recently men and women inhabited very separate spheres. There was always interconnection, passion, love. But men and women didn't hang out at the end of the day and chat about what their day was like at the office.
Anita Diament
The story it told was unremarkable: a tale of love found and lost- the oldest story in the world. The only story.
Anita Diament
I like the way he danced. And then I like the way we danced together.

One of his tears fell in my mouth, where it became a blue sapphire, source of strength, source of strength and eternal hope.
